Binky is watching Uncle Slam Wilson on TV and doesn't take his eyes off for a second. He even tells his mom to move just when she's handing him his dinner. At the end of the match, Uncle Slam Wilson states to his fans he wants them to watch him tomorrow, and Binky complies. | Binky is watching Uncle Slam Wilson on TV and doesn't take his eyes off for a second.

After the title card, at Lakewood Elementary School, Rattles tells Binky he's going to make Lakewood History, by jumping over ten bicycles. He even fantasizes himself doing it successfully, even doing it better by doing flips in the air. Binky tells him that's crazy and he could really hurt himself. Rattles responds by saying "Greatness requires great risks." He even offers Binky to join him, and he declines. Rattles and Slink call him a chicken, and Binky first storms away, but then imagines Rattles performing his stunt, but hits a pebble and flies into the air, falling, and then (off-camera) hitting the bikes, and injuring himself. | After the title card, at Lakewood Elementary School, Rattles tells Binky he's going to make Lakewood History, by jumping over ten bicycles.
